Trump Sharply Scales Back Fuel Economy Rules
The Trump administration has moved to sharply scale back federal fuel economy standards, loosening requirements that push automakers to produce more efficient vehicles. The rollback is likely to draw criticism from environmental groups and states that back stricter emissions rules, while offering relief to carmakers facing compliance costs. The full scope of the changes and their timing remain unclear.
Why now: It is a significant regulatory change affecting car prices, emissions and climate policy, drawing wide attention.
